Want the best shooting board for shooting and stickhandling practice? We offer it to you with two of the best off-ice pucks, the Green Biscuit Snipe, which are also designed for shooting.
The popular Green Biscuit pucks are primarily designed for passing and stickhandling practice. But we all know that without shooting, it wouldn't work! That's why the Green Biscuit Snipe puck is designed for shooting practice. The puck is designed for off-ice training and behaves just like a classic black puck on the ice.
Winnwell Shooting Pad boards are made from a blend of special polymers that contain artificial ice. The slip resistance of the board is comparable to conventional ice. So you can safely practice shooting with a classic hockey puck. The Green Biscuit training pucks are extremely fast on the Winnwell surfaces. So if you want to train your technique with a stick, stickhandling is recommended to try this combination. What is the lifespan of the boards? They are almost indestructible. With normal use (the board will be used to practice shooting or other hockey skills) they will last a lot. However, the wear and scratches that must be taken into account do not affect the excellent properties of the boards or their slipperiness. Scratches and small grooves also enhance the properties of classic ice, which is also not 100% smooth. But as they say, too much of anything is bad! If you have small gravel or sharp stones on your board it is always a good idea to wash and clean the board. Is there any special maintenance required? No! No special products or polishes are used on the boards. If the board is dirty, just sweep or wipe it with a damp cloth, let it dry and you can start practicing again.
Shooting Pad Roll Up Extreme
The largest of the shooting boards is the Winnwell Shooting Pad Roll Up Extreme. The 3 x 1.5 m board allows for really good training. A spacious rolling board that is great for practicing shooting, stickhandling, faceoffs and other hockey skills in a large area. Due to the larger size, the board does not have any handling handles like the smaller models. The overall handling of the board is also worse, but if you can find a permanent place for it, you will definitely be satisfied. We send the board rolled up in its packaging, after unpacking it, just lay it on a flat surface and wait for it to flatten and adjust perfectly. It will take some time, Roll Up Extreme boards are 2-3mm thick and the material has some memory. The time it takes to fully align with the substrate depends on the amount of time the board has been rolled. It is usually ready to shoot within a few hours.
The board can be used outdoors or at home. The shooting board will protect your precious stick against damage as it happens on hard surfaces like concrete or tiles. The surface of the board simulates classic ice as much as possible. Roll Up boards do not have a UV filter, so we do not recommend exposing them to sunlight for a long time (there is a risk of rippling of the board).
